Different view on that: the govt is of the people, by the people, for the people. It's us. Or at least, it was supposed to be. Which means they are not exempt from 2A. It's a right, not a privilege. There is no time when the Constitution is supposed to be suspended because we went somewhere in the country that doesn't like part of it. So if she wants to be armed, it's her right and it was infringed on. Violation of Constitutional rights under color of law is illegal.
Yea completely understand where you're coming from, but what does her action gain her constituents? Imo, it hurt the cause more than helped it. The problem with our reps and senators is that they tend to use one trendy thing that they know will help boost their numbers and don't try to focus on the actual root problem at the time.
For example, election integrity is our biggest problem right now. Our congress people can influence election integrity, so why aren't any of them talking about this or trying to put forth bills for this? Until you can solve for election integrity, they will continue to cheat and strip away your rights.
